Teen College Expo Trip

Thinking about applying to Colleges or wondering if it may be too expensive? Think again. Travel with us via motor coach to Tarboro, NC to attend the annual College Round-Up at Edgecombe Community College. College Round-Up affords you the opportunity to meet face-to-face with college representatives who would like to help YOU find a way to get accepted into college. Students and parents will get a chance to interact with over 35+ colleges and universities as they make every effort to assist you with the application and financial aid processes needed to attend their institutions. If you are a senior, please bring multiple offical (sealed) copies of your high school transcripts. Application fees are waived on the day of the event, at the event only, which means you can apply to, and possibly be accepted to, multiples colleges in one day. A number of the colleges and universities are offering scholarships and other financial assistance. This trip is for both the student and the parent to attend. *Food not included in trip cost. Bus leaves Takoma Park Community Center. Resident $10 per person (including parent). For more information contact Leicia Monfort at 301-891-7283 or LeiciaM@takomaparkmd.gov.
